Eiji Ueda is directing the film and penning the script.

The manga’s story begins when Mitsuo Ichikawa hears the domineering voice of someone on the phone saying, „I killed a woman.” The man was his classmate in high school who had the same name as he does. The voice brings back old, forgotten memories of the man, which revive old passions. Both Mitsuos reunite as accomplices, and their relationship, which had always been one between master and servant, begins to change into something new.

Nakamura published the manga’s five chapters in Akaneshinsha‘sMellow Mellow magazine in 2009, along with two sequel short stories titled „Ame” (Rain) and „Onshitsu no Kajitsu” (The Fruit in the Greenhouse). Akaneshinsha published the manga’s one compiled book volume in July of the same year.
